I ran into a problem where I’m returning to an old career, so I formatted a .doc resume organizing and foregrounding my experience in that career. I’d been applying to jobs with it, and doing terribly, but then I realized that Indeed was just analyzing the resume and making a complete hash of it to present to employers. Now I’m forced to use a chronological-order resume that buries the bulk of my experience under a bunch of retail jobs.

And plenty of places don’t even give you the option to write a cover letter, either.
